Hi Glynis, Just wanted to let you know we all enjoyed our stay at the barn. The whole place has been beautifully restored and the attention to detail is amazing. All the rooms have been furnished to a high standard and the bathrooms are real luxury. They were as good as any five star hotel I've stayed in if not better! We really enjoyed coming back to the Wirral and having a trip down memory lane and the barn was a great location to explore from especially in a family with a couple of kids. We'll definitely be back in the future :-) |

Enjoyed a relaxing short break with my children and friends. We had great weather for February and walked on the beach and cycled on the Wirral Way. We Cooked our evening meals at Herons Well and the kitchen, cooker, pans, wisks, peelers, wine chillers... basically the kitchen and the rest of the house is equiped with everything. The house is open and warm with plenty of space. My three girls all under eight found books, games and dvd's to amuse themselves inside and enjoyed a guided tour of the farm to see the cows being milked. |
